Title: Gave my Jeep some love this weekend
Post by: VileZambonie on April 08, 2020, 05:36:48 pm

Gave my Jeep some needed love and TLC this weekend. I replaced the suspension with a 4” lift, new springs, control arms, track bar, shocks etc. Replaced the skid plate, fuel pump and rhino lined the whole unibody. Front spring perches were toast so I fabbed up some new ones. Everything came out good. Checked the alignment on the machine and everything was dead nuts including the track which I totally eye balled ;) I'll put some bigger sneakers on it once I wear these ones out.

Awesome looks and stance of your Grand Cherokee! Reminds to help my cousin installing the skid plates, m608 toyo tires (https://4wheelonline.com/Toyo-Off_Road_Mud_Tires.25) and led light bars on his Wrangler project.

Thanks. I'll be putting some bigger tires on it soon. I figured I'd melt these ones down first. Jeeps are fun and it's a great commuter vehicle for my needs.

Awesome looking Jeep and nice upgrades. I have a 98 2 door XJ myself. Cherokees are excellent all round vehicles

Thanks. I worked at a Jeep dealer for a few years and always liked them. My buddy just sold his cream puff 2000 XJ that looked like it just left the showroom. I was tempted to buy it but he got his asking price which was far beyond what I would have paid.

They definitely hold value pretty well. But alot of people are just nuts when buying or selling them for ridiculous prices
